Businesses in Bahrain mainly use traditional advertising methods, such as printed ads in local newspapers and magazines, fairs and exhibitions, signboards and billboards.  Advertising also is possible on Bahraini television and radio.  Many businesses distribute flyers in residential neighborhoods.  It is possible to advertise on the internet and via text messaging on cellular networks.  The major mobile phone service providers are Batelco, Viva and Zain.  Bahrain regularly hosts trade shows, which provide good opportunities to market to importers and distributors.
